Note
Attaching the Base
For headsets terminated in RJ-9 modular jacks to be used with SoundPoint IP 320,
321, 330, and 331 phones, a separate Headset Jack Adapter (P/N
2457-11095-001) is required. To purchase the Headset Jack Adapter, contact your
reseller.
Plug the headset RJ9 jack into the adapter, and then plug the adapter into the
2.5mm port on the right side of the phone as shown below. The headset operates
as before.
If headsets are deployed in high static environments where users frequently
disconnect and re-connect the headset to the phone, it is possible that the phone
can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD).
You should take precautions to avoid excessive static buildup in your environment.
This can include humidity control and removal of synthetic materials near the phone
location. Antistatic spray applied to carpets in the workplace can reduce the level of
static buildup.
Attach the phone base to the phone in one of the following ways:
•As a desk mount
•As a wall mount

For more detailed instructions, go to
http://www.polycom.com/support/voip/and search for the “Wallmount
Instructions for SoundPoint IP Phones” quick tip.
Getting Started with Your SoundPoint IP 32x/33x Phone

1 - 7
User Guide for the SoundPoint IP 32x/33x Desktop Phone
To attach the base as a wall mount:

Registering the Phone
1 - 8
Generally, your phone will be deployed with multiple other phones. In this
case, your system administrator will configure the phone parameters
beforehand, so that after you set up your phone, the phone will be registered
and ready to use.
Getting Started with Your SoundPoint IP 32x/33x Phone
If your phone is not part of a large phone deployment, your phone may not be
registered after you set it up. Before you use your phone, you or your system
administrator will have to register it. For detailed information on how to
register your phone after you install it, see Quick Tip 44011: Register Standalone SoundPoint® IP, SoundStation® IP, and Polycom® VVX™ 1500 Phones available
